La Clique - création 2016

And a bandstand on stage

Alternately brass band, battery(drum kit) of drums or rock band, a labor clique (pipe band) reinvests an old kiosk(pavilion) abandoned to evoke its life of brass band and its collective dream there.

Conviviality, banquets, parades, parties and ceremonies, fit of bad temper, strokes(angry outbursts), and knocks of hammers, enamel their musicians' life.

They assault the rusty kiosk, snuggle up there in a organic way, and transmute him(it) in huge musical instrument. As the matrix of the orchestra, this poetic object becomes carousel(merry-go-round), castelet, monumental clock, musical box and zootrope. It rings of any wood and creaks in his(its) joints. 

In the continuation of its street show "The kiosk... or the forgotten brass band ", Zic Zazou pays tribute in the bandstand, firstfederative place of the musics of street. They celebrate all the humanity in a musical, generous and creative show. Around a scenography full of resources and vector of imagination, and through a tonic and inspired direction, we shall find here all the knowledge of the group Zic Zazou: the music of brass band in the broad sense of the term, the sound object, the choral singing, the poetry, and always the humor...
